The upper photo in Fig. 1 shows a SC stator module including YBCO bulk crystals. The stator is composed of eight pieces of YBCO bulk crystals with roof-tile shape [7].The trapped field of the YBCO bulk crystals in the c-direction (perpendicular to the roof-tile plane) was 0.6–0.7 T at 77 K order to enhance the mechanical strength of these …
